misleading message when fs.default.name not set and running sbin/start-dfs.sh
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-2595
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2595
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: name-node
Affects Versions: 0.23.0
Reporter: Joe Crobak
Priority: Minor
sbin/start-dfs.sh calls {{bin/hdfs getconf -namenodes}} which reports the
following error if the default value of fs.default.name from core-default.xml
is used: {noformat}Incorrect configuration: namenode address
dfs.namenode.servicerpc-address or dfs.namenode.rpc-address is not
configured.{noformat}
In previous versions of hadoop, I would see a slightly more helpful message:
{noformat}org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Does not contain a valid host:port
authority: file:///{noformat}
